4/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 1/6 is 4/24 simplified.

To prove this, all you have to do is try simplifying 4/24 yourself. To do that, we are going to use 4 to divide both the numerator and the denominator because 4 is a common factor of 4 and 24.

(To simplify a fraction, you divide both the numerator and denominator by a common factor)

So 4 divided by 4 is 1, and 24 divided by 4 is 6

1/6

99% sure im right; )
